Dr. Vikas Agarwal, MD

Dr Agarwal is a Compassionate , Caring, patient committed physician.

Doctor left negative medical notes on my health records that I refused vaccines and medication. He prescribe two medication - one was $586.00 (every 3 months) - I declined because I can not afford that on social security. He prescribed another medication which I ordered through mail order, then I receive a notice that the doctors office would not return the call to mail order so they had to cancel. Concerning the vaccines: I had a vaccine while in high school and had a reaction to it - I had to spend hours in the health center to make sure I didn't get worse. I took a vaccine about 20 years ago and ended up in the hospital with a reaction. I took a flu vaccine and later I was diagnosised with an auto immune disease. I was informed that I am allergic to a preservative in these vaccines. I have asked for him to remove the misinformation and he has not yet done so. I am temporarily moving so I have already located a new doctor. I cancelled appts and future health assistance.

What seemed to be a possible good fit for my symptoms turned into a nightmare. He used a procedure called the McKenzie Method on my back which only caused increased damage to my injured spine. When I later went to the ER due to unbearable pain, I was basically left alone in a room for four days. I finally found out from a nurse that he wanted to have to me committed in the psychiatric ward. I immediately checked myself out. Since then, I have been diagnosed with FND at another more competent hospital and am awaiting surgery. Avoid this doctor and seek assistance elsewhere.

After seeing 3-4 doctors over 5 years for chronic back pain after my first visit to Dr. Agarwal I was on my way to no more back pain. He solved my back pain problem with simple daily back exercises and no pain pills. I still can't believe I am pain free. Dr. Agarwal is great at listening to me and explaining any health concerns I may have. He has a great staff and I have recommended him to friends and family.

This doctor has literally been my rock. I moved to KCMO and still go back to St. Joseph to see him. He listens, he studies all lab work intently, and is always ready to answer my questions. I can't recommend him enough. Thank you Dr. Agarwal for being there for me, always!!!
